By kindlylives When many people were in love, they might want to be with each other all the time and not want to be apart for a second. But if that was the case, would it be a good thing?
Some time ago, we reported on the experience of a couple in Ukraine.
Victoria Pustovitova, a 28-year-old woman from Ukraine, and her 33-year-old boyfriend, Alexander Kudlay, always broke up with each other.
The two would break up once every week or two, but after breaking up, they would continue to be together and then choose to get back together.
Before Valentine’s Day on February 14 this year, the couple quarreled again. Victoria broke up again in anger, but this time Alexander did not agree.
Instead, he made a strange suggestion, which was to handcuff the two of them together for three months to save their relationship.
Alexander said,” Victoria once argued and wanted to break up. I responded at that time-then I tied you to me.”
At first, Victoria immediately rejected this strange suggestion and even hung up the phone in anger. However, she changed her mind in the end and decided to try again with Alexander to save their relationship.
Victoria said,” This is an interesting experience for me. It brings new emotions to my life that I have never experienced before. I love him, so I decided to do this.”
So the two began the experiment on Valentine’s Day. They tied their hands together with chains for three months.
They also began to record the experiment on social media, sharing their daily lives after being handcuffed together.
Under such circumstances, they had to get up, sleep, brush their teeth and wash their faces at the same time… No personal space or privacy, doing everything together 。
If Alexander wanted to shave, Victoria would need to stand aside and raise her hand to cooperate.
Of course, when Victoria wanted to dry her hair and put on makeup, Alexander had to wait by the side and couldn’t go anywhere.
Whatever the other party needed to do, even if he did not need it, he had to accompany them. such as one of them Shower or go to the toilet, another person He had to wait outside and stick his handcuffed hand into the toilet or bathroom.
Their lives were almost no different from that of conjoined twins…
When they went out for coffee, their hands were handcuffed together.
The scene seemed quite sweet, but she felt that something was wrong…
However, after being handcuffed together, the two of them did not easily break up.
Alexander said that although it was very uncomfortable and inconvenient at first,” as time went by, we got more and more used to it, and it became easier.”
He said that both of them seemed to have found a new way to get used to each other.” Once we start arguing or can’t understand each other, we will stop talking and calm down instead of packing up and leaving.”
Some netizens didn’t know the ins and outs of the whole matter. They only saw photos of them handcuffed together. Some people praised the two of them as a cute couple.
However, some netizens expressed that they could not understand. Why did they do this? It looked a little scary.
They had also attracted the attention of the major media, and people began to wonder about their purpose in doing so. At that time, they had been handcuffed together for a month. They had adapted well to this kind of life, although they still quarreled occasionally.
However, during this period, the two of them also encountered a problem, and the experiment was almost stopped.
During this time, the iron chain scratched the skin on Victoria’s wrist. Her wound began to become severely inflamed. Even after applying medicine, it continued to worsen. She said,” It’s like a nightmare.”
In the end, the two of them had to go to the hospital for treatment. The doctor said that the metal had worn down Victoria’s skin for a long time, and because the wound had not healed, it had worn down again, resulting in sores.
The doctor suggested that for the sake of skin recovery, it was best for the two of them to give up the experiment.
However, they still did not listen to the doctor’s advice and insisted on persisting. The doctor had no choice but to apply medicine to Victoria’s skin wound and let her wear a bandage.
Another month passed quickly, and the two of them continued to be handcuffed by fate. On May 19th, they were also informed that they had broken a world record.
Victoria and Alexander had broken the world record for the longest time two people had been locked together.
At that time, they even claimed that they would be handcuffed until they got married. They also hoped to make a profit from this, earn millions, and then donate the money to charity.
Alexander said in an interview that he was currently raising funds to become a millionaire and would use some of the funds for charity.
“We want to donate $2 million to charity and are currently in negotiations. We’ll keep a million dollars for ourselves.
We will also buy apartments for ourselves and our loved ones. We don’t have our own house at the moment.”
However, the media did not know how they were going to raise funds from being handcuffed together. According to the clues he had learned at the time, they planned to participate in a reality show together.
Perhaps this was just a fantasy of becoming a star and making a lot of money because of the media attention and program invitations.
Just like that, the days passed. Even after the agreed three-month experimental period, the two of them continued to live like this.
However, recently, the news of their breakup came.
On June 17th, under the witness of many media outlets, they held a break-up ceremony and cut the chains in a high-profile manner. After being handcuffed together for 123 days, they finally broke up.
When the chains that locked their hands were cut, Victoria shouted happily,” Hooray! I’m finally free!”
“I want to live an independent life and become an independent person,” she added.
“Thank you for your support, everyone. We are very happy to have such an experience in our lives.”
In the end, the two of them couldn’t take it anymore and wanted to break up. Originally, they were locked together to save their relationship. They went to the bathroom, took a shower, cooked, ate, and did everything together.
In the end, they broke up because they were too intimate and had no private space.
Another practical reason was that Victoria lost her job and had no source of income.
Alexander was a car salesman. Because they were handcuffed 24 hours a day, Victoria had to accompany him to work.
However, Victoria was a beautician. Her female clients, because they minded that her boyfriend was present and was so close to them, all said that they would not look for her for beauty treatment.
So Victoria lost her job after being handcuffed.
But Victoria wasn’t the only one complaining. Even Alexander, who had made the suggestion, was overwhelmed.
He complained,”We’re getting a little tired of all this.”We’re tired of each other. When one of us wants to be here and the other wants to be there.”
He also hated the noise of cooking, but when Victoria cooked, he had to stand by.
He also hated spending so much time in front of the mirror every morning because his girlfriend needed to put on makeup and change clothes, so he was forced to spend a lot of time in front of the mirror.
So this time, both sides agreed to cut the chains and regain their freedom. At the same time, they also announced that they would break up.
This result was not surprising.
After all, without freedom, love in private space would collapse sooner or later…
